Norman Sword with scabbard, regular edition

The Battle of Hastings in 1066 sealed the final defeat of England against the Normans, who crowned hereupon William the
Conqueror as their new king. At the same time, this historic event marks the end of the Viking Age: Through all their
conquests, the Vikings ultimately settled down, and, as Christianized Normans, even fought in the crusades in the name of
their
new god.

This sword coincides precisely with this wartime era, which was marked by significant changes. It can be qualified as a
late
Viking sword as well as a Norman sword.

It is solely hand-crafted. The guard and the characteristic pommel are made out of heat-treated malleable cast iron.
The spring steel blade is oil-tempered up to 48-50° Rockwell and hand-riveted to the
pommel. The hilt is leather-strapped. The blade has a distinctive fuller
which offers both great flexibility and a lesser weight. The edges of the
blade are blunt and the tip is rounded for safety.

The beautiful wooden scabbard is leather-wrapped and features a wooden belt
loop (max. belt width 5 cm) as well as a steel chape.

This is the practical blunt version of our Norman sword. The same sword is also available as regular edition:
